This course is aimed at adult beginners who want to progress quickly beyond the basics and will also appeal to those who want to brush up existing knowledge. Malay is spoken in Malaysia, Singapore, Brunei and parts of Thailand. Teach Yourself Malay is a self-access course for the independent adult learner of Malay as a foreign language. Lively dialogues (recorded by Malay speakers on the accompanying double CD) in authentic Malay introduce the language, which is then explained in simple English, as it is not assumed that the student has learned a foreign language before. Exercises - written, audio, and pictorial - are used to reinforce learning. At the end of the book there are a 'taking it further' section, a key to the exercises and Malay-English and English-Malay vocabulary lists.
